Express exception (to) (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

demur

(Other definitions for demur that I've seen before include "Raise mild objection" , "Hesitate from uncertainty or object" , "Politely disagree" , "Take exception (to)" , "Protest mildly, show reluctance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
